Enter length, width, and height in meters to calculate volume in cubic meters.
How to Use the Cubic Meters Calculator
Enter length, width, and height in meters to get volume in cubic meters — the standard unit for bulk material orders (soil, concrete, gravel) almost everywhere outside the US.
cubic meters = length × width × height
liters = cubic meters × 1,000The liter conversion is exact by definition — a liter is one thousandth of a cubic meter, full stop, not an approximation carried over from an old imperial standard. That makes it a useful sanity check: a cubic meter of water weighs almost exactly 1,000 kg, since a liter of water weighs almost exactly 1 kg.
